new project

well I pick up a para ordnance the other day and its not in bad condition but it was dirty so went to the shop took it apart had it in the cleaner and after it came out it has some corosion and blueing was faded so I decided to give it a tune up and a new finish will get some pics tomorrow I need to bead blast and parkerize it first then its gonna get a new finish.

if you dont mind, what did you have to give for it, I was gonna trade in a p-14L but could not give them the mags. I did buy the gun like 12 years ago, just wondering, http://www.brownells...ordanance_grips

Interests:I am into foraging of all kinds. Hunting for game is just one aspect. Every time I am out in the back country I am looking for edible, useful and medicinal flora and fauna. I am also constantly working on survival skills. Hunted as a boy for squirrel, rabbit and some upland birds. I am a farmer by trade and I work for an organic farm founded on ethical work practices.

Wow. That sure is a nice 1911! The blue titanium looks great. Looks like a really fun project.
